Yes. It can be done. But it is not recommended for productive Systems. You can find a complete how-to including a Ubuntu-ppa on this site: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/how-to-install-ubuntu-tv-from-ppa.html

Alternatively you can compile it on your own. Instructions for everything can be found in the link.

There is a possibility that like GoogleTV it will be available on a box as well as TV, but for a definitive answer you would have to wait until it is officially released.

It is already possible to install a development version of Ubuntu TV on a vanilla Ubuntu, so I think the answer is "yes".
